Cathe's Low Impact Series update - Page 2

eyefit · 08-29-11, 02:01 PM

cathe may be like me..she gives herself a date to shoot for but is always "a bit" later than she expects! Every day I run out of my house slightly late and rushing like a mad woman. I even set my clock 10 minutes fast to try and "trick" myself to get my butt moving faster!

I wish I was on of those people who was always 5 minutes early instead of 5 minutes late! LOL

Me neither, so this is speculation

... but I don't think Cathe is doing the editing all by herself. If she hires an editor, it's probably easier and cheaper to get that person for a few days at the very end, rather than bits & pieces of time as they go. Even if the editor is a regular employee of the production company (which seems likely), it's probably easiest to schedule a chunk of that person's time all at once.

I really don't care about the shipping dates or if they are late. I know that Cathe is going to give me the BEST workout ever and the wait is worth it.

I LOVE CATHE!

I thought I read a reply this weekend from the administrator that they didn't think Irene was going to impact the progress. Of course, I guess things could change.

A compliment to the CS

-
They have been very good about their updates and they are very quick to answer any questions. Thumbs up to whoever is handing out the information.

Oh, I'm not concerned about it. I just thought maybe the reason they were staggering the filming was specifically to try to get things wrapped up sooner this time. I agree with you, Cathe does give me some of the best workouts I have. I just really click with her workouts for some reason. There are some I like better than others but I don't know that I truly dislike any.

As far as the ship date, well, it was only an estimated date. I'm happy with an estimate and won't hold it against them because they are up front about it being an estimated time frame. If they weren't giving updates then I could understand a little tension but they have been giving updates and answering questions.

I can't use this series until Oct. I'm getting really excited about these workouts but I have no problem waiting for them at this point.

I'm actually pretty impressed that the shipping date is going to be as close as it is to the original estimate. I never took August 31 as gospel.

Jordan, you're right about the good CS with respect to questions on the forum! I've tagged a couple of questions on to the end of existing threads, and have gotten quick responses. The answers made me happy too!

(FYI: The downloads will include all raw footage included in all premixes on the DVDs, and SNM will provide those who bought downloads info about premixes (or templates for the Workout Blender - I wasn't clear) a couple of weeks after release. The only thing I wasn't happy about is they won't provide downloads of the cover art. Downloads cost the same as DVDs - I think we should get all of the content. SNM are worried about pirating though.)

I don't care about the shipping date, its old news. I've got enough going on in my life that not having these dvd's on 8/31 isn't going to crash my world. I'm saving them for winter anyway.

I am bit disappointed because the DVD's have not been sent to the replicators yet. Given that there are 10 DVD's it takes at least a month for replication. So Im thinking we wont get these until Oct at the earliest. Oh well its not the end of the world..

That's the way they should do it! Of course, then the ship date would actually be on October 1st and people would quickly post on VF that they missed their deadline AGAIN!
